Sent my original seat belts to Charlie Santorelli of Seatbelt Sity in New Jersey. I read about this guy on this site and the Corvette forum. This guy is my kind of guy, he doesn't beat around the bush. He can come off as a little grumpy but I'm sure he gets a lot of people who want champagne on a beer budget. Once he discovers you value the service and you want it done right, he gets excited about the project. He is very informative and detail oriented. He also does a great job at keeping you in the loop, lots of updates. Some of my original webbing was in decent shape but some was stained beyond repair and all of it was faded. He went through the process of finding me some genuine GM 3 ply webbing, not 4 ply reproduction. He then reinked my original tags and cleaned up my buckles. He did admit they didn't need much work and were some of the nicest ones he's got shipped to him.
My car, being an early car, has no retractors which helped on the cost of the job. I definitely recommend him! First photo shows some of my original belts, second shows some black mold stains, third is the restored belts.
